Moonlight Hilton to receive telescope from ISEA. The International Space Exploration Administration (ISEA), formerly known as NASA, said yesterday that it will supply the Moonlight Hilton with a powerful telescope to be mounted on the roof of the hotel.
"This is a great partnership," ISEA project manager Robert Geller said as he sat beside Hilton Hotels Corporation President and CEO Seymore Hilton IV. "This is a wonderful opportunity for people to see space in a different way." Geller went on to explain how atmospheric pollution interfers with Earth-based telescopes.
The Rolling Stones Clones to play the Moonlight Hilton. In an unexpected announcement, the British band The Rolling Stones Clones said that they will play several gigs at the Moonlight Hilton Amphitheater during the Christmas and New Year's holiday season.
The Rolling Stones Clones are clones of the original members of the Rolling Stones, with the exclusion of guitarist Keith Richards, who is the sole surviving member of the popular 20th century band.
Asked why they wanted to play the Moonlight Hilton, Richards, stumbling over his words for about a minute, explained that he and "the boys" had "rocked the world," and now it was time to "rock the moon."
